Beautiful bamburgh run and it was a run :)

What a pristine, sparkling, dream of a morning, crisp but mild , 1st Dec, big blue skies, sun rising behind the castle, had not reached the hidden beach leading to the rosses links by the golf course but as I trotted up the lane towards this beautiful and peaceful place, the sunrise followed me and the wide,  untouched by feat beach , with tide out  leaving acres of freshly washed golden sand which slowly saw the sun , all sparkled, I ran in total peace, in heaven. Waxing lyrical here but was rather beautiful..... About 6k maybe....  Had a quick word with the massive black bull on the way back to the village. He had been around for a while but only seen his impressive frame from a distance. Today, he was right by the wall, with one of his ladies.... Big, brooding and  gorgeous so I said good morning, he looked at me , I kept running...... Felt totally energised and happy . That is a gooood run. Not had one in a while so really , really happy with that.  No nonsense, no one else but me , all ok. 

Did you think I had stopped ? Not far off

Did a park run, a terrible 5k from home and  a sort of mini trot (really mini) over the sand dunes in bamburgh. That's it, the sum total of 2 months....... Nova does not run at the min......:( . Hope your running is going better.  Just tried to find a running photo but by mistake put this random one on , no idea where it came from or how to get rid so sorry about that. 

Precious little running

Some swimming, spin class and breasting. But no running..........

Okey done , quick update

So not much of getting on with it happening. Sorry about that. Has been a bit quiet but can't make up the exercise..... Did do shouty man again.... Much against my better judgement and others advice. Felt great doing it and I think it was a reaction to the terrible ballet mums experience. Did ok in the end but sore and I mean sore.... After. Still sore when I went  swimming mid week and then now't over weekend (not my choice) then up a welsh mountain for charity, felt my fitness levels fine but legs wee sore and really stiff today. Tried to enter the inaugural brownlees tri but too late and a bit of a pathetic follow up. Best of luck to mates doing it !! Will really have to dig in coax just spent a couple of days hearing from work colleagues who have just completed iron men and lands end to johns groats by bike..... Ramp it up novee!! 

Break over - time to graft and get another goal.

Feel a bit out of shape, fitness will definately have dropped off but I realise the hard wor
K needs to start with a run tomorrow , sybe a bike too. Swim on thurs. book a race. That's the autumn plan.... What's yours?

Nova runs Santa Cruz.....

Nice running here, was totally oblivious to the drop outa and occasional weirdos ,  went for a lovely run from the hotel to the boardwalk back into town again. Later was told we were in a dodgy part of town and someone was shot in the car park of the hotel last year. Um....... Anyway, joggin is done and unfortunately we are indulging in too many breakfasts and drinks . Having to work it off somehow.

Quick un planned run

Due to dodgy man now in job in gym... Not impressed but at least pushes me outside in the air. Lovely trot by the river. Glorious evening. Tarrrra.
